This is really incredible. The government's battle to deport Abrego Garcia has apparently been based on a lie from the start. Not even the "gang affiliation" lie or the "human smuggling" lie, but the more basic assertion that he was ordered to be deported in the first place.

Have you seen the Newberry featured on a digital billboard along 90/94? Wintrust has generously provided space to us as a nonprofit partner throughout this month. The billboard is best viewed from 90/94 near the North Avenue exit. Drive safely!

If you, like me, were like "...diversity?"

"The department under Blinken...had switched to Calibri, a modern sans-serif font, saying this was a more accessible font for people with disabilities bc it did not have the decorative angular features & was the default in Microsoft products."

Diversity.

Calibri is a DEI font?

I'm glad I wasn't listening live because I DEFINITELY would have thought, "This is it. We're going down."

Had a donut in the hopes that it would improve this day but now it's still a bad day but with a sugar crash.

The softball interviews will continue until far-right extremism is normalized.

The Dems deliberately sold the entire country out to actual fascists in broad daylight ostensibly for just the promise of a vote, which now theyโ€™re not getting.

They knew what they were doing. Everyone in Congress is a traitor. Everyone.

Beat Back ICE! Free Our Friends!

ICE is kidnapping our neighbors and our community, but Tucson doesn't go down without a fight! On Friday, December 5th, after raiding local businesses and stealing our neighbors from us, ICE tear gassed observers, and have already arrested at least two of our beloved community members.

They need our support.ย Help us raise funds for their bail, legal fees, loss of income, and other support needs.

Heartbreaking. The University of Nebraska will terminate its entire Earth science department.

One of the country's most successful and respected geology & climate programs: gone.

When ideologues & politicians are threatened by the very act of studying climate change, I wonder: who of us is next?

Fred Hampton speaking at a rally in Grant Park, Chicago, September 1969

Fred Hampton speaking at a rally in Grant Park, Chicago, September 1969

"If you ever think about me, and if you ainโ€™t gonna do no revolutionary act, forget about me. I donโ€™t want myself on your mind, if youโ€™re not gonna work for the people."

On this day in 1969, Fred Hampton was shot to death by Chicago, Cook County and federal police as he slept in his apartment.

I see a light at the end of the tunnel. It's a long tunnel and the light is small, but I see it.
